Overview

We are a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on November 23, 2020, formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, amalgamation, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses that we have not yet identified. We intend to effectuate our business combination using cash derived from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the private placement warrants, our shares, debt or a combination of cash, shares and debt.

We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete a business combination will be successful.

Results of Operations

We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities from November 23, 2020 (inception) through December 31, 2025 were organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for the Initial Public Offering, described below, and subsequent to the Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for a business combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our business combination. We generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account. We incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, we had a net income of $11,891,655, which consisted of interest earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $12,443,573, partially offset by general and administrative expenses of $551,918.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, we had a net income of $8,671,665, which consisted of interest earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $9,236,638, partially offset by general and administrative expenses of $564,973.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern

Until the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, our only source of liquidity was an initial purchase of shares of Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, by our co-sponsors in the amount of $25,000 and loans from our co-sponsors or their affiliates pursuant to promissory notes. These loans are non-interest bearing, unsecured and are due at the earlier of the consummation of our initial business combination and the second anniversary of the consummation of our Initial Public Offering. As of December 31, 2025, there was a total amount of $400,000 outstanding under such promissory notes, of which $200,000 remains outstanding under the promissory note with GP Sponsor, $100,000 remains outstanding under the promissory note with Boxcar Partners Two, LLC, an affiliate of Boxcar sponsor, and $100,000 remains outstanding under the promissory note with Act III sponsor.

On May 13, 2024, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 28,750,000 Units, which includes the full exercise by the underwriter of its over-allotment option in the amount of 3,750,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $287,500,000. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the sale of 7,000,000 private placement warrants to Sponsor HoldCo and to Cantor at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds of $7,000,000, including the purchase by the non-managing HoldCo investors, indirectly through the purchase of non-managing Sponsor HoldCo membership interests, if 4,025,000 private placement warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant.

Following the Initial Public Offering and the private placement, a total of $287,500,000 ($10.00 per Unit) was placed in the Trust Account. We incurred transaction costs of $20,269,166 consisting of $5,000,000 of cash underwriting fee, $13,687,500 of deferred underwriting fee (see additional discussion in Note 6 of the financial statements), and $1,581,666 of other offering costs.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, cash used in operating activities was $372,225. Net income of $11,891,655 was affected by interest earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $12,443,573. Changes in operating assets and liabilities used $179,693 of cash for operating activities.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, cash used in operating activities was $584,718. Net income of $8,671,665 was affected by interest earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $9,236,638. Changes in operating assets and liabilities used $19,745 of cash for operating activities.

As of December 31, 2025, we had marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $309,180,211 (including approximately $21,680,211 of interest income). We may withdraw interest from the Trust Account to pay taxes, if any. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (less permitted withdrawals and deferred underwriting discounts and commissions), to complete our initial business combination. To the extent that our capital stock or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our initial business combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.

As of December 31, 2025, we had cash of $112,660. We intend to use the funds held outside the Trust Account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, structure, negotiate and complete a business combination, and to pay for directors and officers liability insurance premiums. We have incurred and expect to continue to incur significant professional costs to remain as a publicly traded company and to incur significant transaction costs in pursuit of the consummation of a business combination.

We initially have until May 13, 2026 to consummate the initial business combination (assuming no extensions). If we do not complete a business combination, we will trigger an automatic winding up, dissolution and liquidation pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association. Notwithstanding management's belief that we would have sufficient funds to execute its business strategy, there is a possibility that business combination might not happen within the 24-month period from the date of the auditors' report.

In connection with our assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with ASC 205-40, "Going Concern", as of December 31, 2025, we may need to raise additional capital through loans or additional investments from our co-sponsors, Sponsor HoldCo, stockholders, officers, directors, or third parties. Our officers, directors and co-sponsors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion, to meet our working capital needs. Accordingly, we may not be able to obtain additional financing. If we are unable to raise additional capital, it may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of a potential transaction, and reducing overhead expenses. We cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all.

Management plans to address this uncertainty through a business combination. If a business combination is not consummated by the end of the Combination Period, currently May 13, 2026, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company. Management has determined that the liquidity condition, the date of mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after the Combination Period. The Company intends to complete the initial Business Combination before the end of the Combination Period. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate any Business Combination by the end of the Combination Period.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of December 31, 2025. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.

Contractual Obligations

We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than an agreement to pay an aggregate of $5,000 per month to the affiliate of GPIAC II, LLC for office space, administrative and support services. We began incurring these fees on May 8, 2024 and will continue to incur these fees monthly until the earlier of the completion of the business combination and our liquidation.

The underwriter is entitled to a deferred fee of (i) $0.45 per Unit sold in the base offering of the Initial Public Offering, or $11,250,000 in the aggregate, and (ii) $0.65 per Unit sold pursuant to the underwriter's over-allotment option, or up to an additional $2,437,500 in the aggregate ($13,687,500 in total). Considering that the underwriter's over-allotment option was exercised in full, the deferred underwriter's fee of $13,687,500 will become payable to the underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes an initial business combination subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgement. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, actual results could materially differ from those estimates. As of December 31, 2025, we did not have any critical accounting estimates to be disclosed.

Net Income per Ordinary Share

We comply with the accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, "Earnings Per Share." Net loss per Ordinary Share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to shareholders by the weighted average number of Ordinary Shares outstanding for the applicable periods. We apply the two-class method in calculating earnings per Ordinary Share and allocate net loss pro rata to Class A Ordinary Shares subject to possible redemption, nonredeemable Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares. Accretion associated with the redeemable Class A Ordinary Shares is excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value is not in excess of the fair value.

Recent Accounting Standards

In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2024-03, "Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses", requiring public entities to disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to the financial statements on an interim and annual basis. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2024-03.

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.
